What is Object Detection?

Object Detection is the process of finding real-world object instances like car, bike, TV, flowers, and humans in still images or Videos. It allows for the recognition, localization, and detection of multiple objects within an image which provides us with a much better understanding of an image as a whole. It is commonly used in applications such as image retrieval, security, surveillance, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

Object Detection can be done via multiple ways:

  • Feature-Based Object Detection
  • Viola Jones Object Detection
  • SVM Classifications with HOG Features
  • Deep Learning Object Detection
